Hey guys. ASU was back out at practice today, gearing up for its matchup against No. 15 Utah on Saturday at Sun Devil Stadium. Here are the latest takeaways from Jeff Griffith and I after the Devils' two open practices of the week.

PERSONNEL NOTES
--Following the opening stretch period, we noticed the following players head into the bubble: Terell Chatman (R-Jr./WR), Darien Corney (Jr./DB), Ryan Newsome (R-Jr./WR) and Ryan Kelley (R-Fr./QB)
--Other than Jalen Harvey playing in green again, there wasn't much new information regarding personnel today.
